[QUOTE="L R Ballard, post: 7040909, member: 40307"] First, let me congratulate you on the success of MapForge! I’ve followed your work since the early days of Battlegrounds and am considering backing MapForge. I know you’re busy with the Kickstarter, but, when you get a free moment, please answer a two-part question for people who are in the situation described below. Let’s say that a creator is working on a product for commercial use. Furthermore, let’s say that the creator uses Photoshop to create maps. It looks like your product will be easier to use than Photoshop and compatible with a lot of art. The maps therefore will be more detailed than a Photoshop map created by an unskilled or semiskilled user. But it seems both expensive and redundant for creators to produce a high-quality map in MapForge only to use it as a rough draft to make a less-detailed map in Photoshop. Is it possible for creators to use MapForge to make commercial products with the current available art? If not, is there a benefit to using MapForge rather than Photoshop if one is a commercial content creator only? [/QUOTE]
